Foreign Influence on Research Integrity

You may have heard recent news reports about research integrity and inappropriate foreign influence on university research. Also, the topic of foreign influence on federally sponsored research, including confidential peer review, has recently garnered significant attention across multiple government agencies.
While the University of Illinois Springfield remains dedicated to cultivating research collaborations with foreign sponsors, we as a research community must be transparent about our external relationships. Furthermore, we are responsible for maintaining the integrity of our research enterprise and protecting our intellectual property and university resources.
